[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1966099, member: 63925"] Since it was a .270 there are a couple of threads that you may want to read for ideas for the old girl to "modernize" or "update" it. Re-barrel with faster twist and you have a all the benefits of the original .270 plus ability to shoot heavier bullets. Restoring it back with updated twist, 5R rifling, Timney trigger, good solid stock with at least pillar bedding and you now have one heck of a rifle for future legacy as well.
